Was here on a Saturday night with friends. The crowd is made up of mostly 18-25. The decor is minimal, almost industrial...plain square tables with square "crate" stools. The kitchen is open concept and in plain view of everyone. The staff is made up of young, hip students, and despite the loud music they were able to hear/see us when we needed something. Our waiter was helpful and made good suggestions. We ordered Vegetable tempura, tofu salad, Chicken Karaage and Chicken Yaki Tori and the fried cheese with a plum sauce. All were excellent. We ordered a round of drinks that included 1/2 Beer with ginger ale, and a Malibu Pineapple...all were great! Would definitely go back, but have to be in the right state of mind, because again, it is rather on the loud side.
